Each one will have a plain text log showing the contents of the email.

I'm not suggesting that passwords be sent in the clear, but is this
really the case, that email server log files will contain the contents
of the email? While I know the servers obviously get a copy of the
message in order to forward it, do any servers keep the full message
text in their logs?

_Could_ they do this, sure, but from a practical point of view, _do_
they? Ignoring an archiving email server, which is a totally different
thing, and more of a regulatory issue, it would seem to me that keeping
a complete copy of every email that crossed a relaying MTA would be a
waste of disk space.
